Bordeaux and its Wines
Duncan Baird
"This beautifully written and photographed book takes us on an evocative journey through the appellations of Bordeaux. Discover the many and varied regions of Bordeaux from Margaux to St-Emilion, from the Medoc to Graves. Savour the wines produced there, and understand how the climate, the soil and the people make the wines what they are.

Savour the wines produced there, and understand how the climate, the soil and the people make the wines what they are. Visit the chateaux, villages and vineyards of Bordeaux and meet the men and women who, every year, turn baskets of grapes into the bottles of wine that are among the most sought-after in the world. Along the way, Robert Joseph introduces us to figures who have shaped the history of Bordeaux. He also shares anecdotes about famous Bordeaux-lovers from Samuel Pepys to Richard Nixon" (Amazon)

"***** 5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent one-that-says-it-all book
By A Customer on 26 Dec. 2000

The Wine Lists
Guinness
"Joseph has compiled more lists than any wine lover would have thought possible: there are lists of Champagnes, Connecticut wines, Port shippers, kosher wine producers. Organized alphabetically, entries run the gamut from airline wines to food with wine to Italian ""clarets'' to Zimbabwe, and often include tidbits of commentary or information on such subjects as wine types, winemakers and prices. Interspersed among the lists are nuggets of obscure information: the capacity of the world's…
"Joseph has compiled more lists than any wine lover would have thought possible: there are lists of Champagnes, Connecticut wines, Port shippers, kosher wine producers. Organized alphabetically, entries run the gamut from airline wines to food with wine to Italian ""clarets'' to Zimbabwe, and often include tidbits of commentary or information on such subjects as wine types, winemakers and prices. Interspersed among the lists are nuggets of obscure information: the capacity of the world's largest wooden wine cask (40,790 gallons); the record distance at which a grape thrown from the ground has been caught in the mouth (270, 4) and the like. The author's style is marked by dry, at times biting, wit, and anyone with an interest in wine will find this diverting reading." (Publishers Weekly)
